The Tirupati police on Tuesday arrested the techie who had feigned innocence after allegedly killing his wife, packing the body in a jute bag and dumping it in a water body.
Kamsali Venugopal (34), who got married to M. Padmavati in 2019, reportedly had differences with his wife since then after he allegedly started demanding additional dowry. The relationship ran into rough weather in spite of the efforts by the parents on both the sides to bring about rapprochement.
After Padmavati approached the Disha police station recently, the couple underwent counselling sessions, but the techie went ahead in serving a legal notice to his wife for divorce. When Padmavati disagreed for the divorce proposal, an enraged Venugopal allegedly hatched a plan along with his roommate Santosh to kill her.
